About the Item
This rare original lithograph print is from 1899. It is one sheet of a huge 24 sheet poster that was created in 1899 to announce Buffalo Bills Wild West. The size of the complete 24 sheet poster would have been approx. 10 feet tall by 20 feet wide and would have been posted on barns and buildings in 1899 to promote Buffalo Bills Wild West before it would come to towns. This 1 sheet of the 24 sheet lithograph is in such good condition because it was found in the Lithographers draws of the print shop that created the poster. It is black and white because it was a proof that was used to create the final layout of the color poster. It indicates on the image that it is No. 2 Buffalo Bill San Juan Hill 1899, so it would have been the 2nd poster down on the left side of the large total image comprised of 24 separate sheets all unique to create the full image. You can see the two black printed lines on the left side indicate where the edge of the poster would have been. We have never seen a complete image of this rare 1899 poster. When we first acquired this rare proof over 20 years ago, we contacted the The Ringling Museum in Florida that houses a large Buffalo Bill poster collection and asked them if they have a full image of this 1899 poster with all 24 sheets in color and they said that they have an 1899 Buffalo Bill Battle of San Juan Hill poster in their collection but that they have it stored and it is still in pieces and has not yet been put together by a conservator. We have included in this listing a photo of a different Buffalo Bill 24 sheet poster at the Buffalo Bill Museum in Cody Wyoming to show the scale of what a full 24 sheet poster would look like.
Here is a chance to purchase a rare and unique piece of history from 1899 and Buffalo Bills Wild West. Again, no one has in the past 100 years seen the full poster and this is a glimpse at one of the 24 sheets that would form the entire image of the poster.
In all of our research this is the only print known to exist from this 1899 Buffalo Bill "Battle of San Juan Hill" poster

"Alphabet Marilyn" Lavender/Pink, 42x36", framed
By Ceravolo
Located in Southampton, NY
We are please to present Ceravolo's one of a kind "Alphabet Monroe Lavender/Pink". Ceravolo has been a master of creating intriguing portraits of iconic personalities for more then 4 decades, and rose to fame when he was commissioned to create 5 large-scale portraits for the lobby of the Palladium Theatre in New York City of Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, Neil Young, Frank Zappa and Hall and Oates, In addition to those portraits, his paintings are in the private collections of Sir Elton John, Rod Stewart, Hugh M. Hefner, and Prince Jefri of Brunei to name only a few.
With his new Alphabet series, Ceravolo combines an image of his stylized black and white portrait painting, with letters of the alphabet and adds color to the negative space formed by the letters. As a final touch, he places color in the letters that make up the iconic subjects first or last name. This creates a contemporary, yet classic look to this unique creation.
This work is titled, "Alphabet Marilyn lavender/Pink" and is printed on Rag paper size is 36x30" framed size measures 42x36". It is a one of a kind work and is signed by Ceravolo.
I have included an image of Ceravolo with some of his Celebrity collectors as well as a vintage...

Old Violinist - Late 19th Century Figurative Lithograph
By John George Brown
Located in Soquel, CA
Finely detailed late 19th century chromo-lithograph portrait of a violinist street musician by John George Brown (British, 1831-1913). Many of Brown’s paintings were reproduced in lithography (Chromo-lithograpy), as is the case with the one offered here. Presented in a rustic antique Oak wood frame with giltwood fillet. Image, 15.63"H x 10.63"W.
John George Brown was a British citizen and an American painter born in Durham, England. His parents apprenticed him to the career of glass worker at the age of fourteen, in an attempt to dissuade him from pursuing painting. He studied nights at the School of Design in Newcastle-on-Tyne while working as a glass cutter there between 1849 and 1852, and evenings at the Trustees Academy in Edinburgh while working at the Holyrood Glass Works between 1852 ad 1853. After moving to New York City in 1853, he studied with Thomas Seir Cummings at the National Academy of Design where he was elected a National Academician in 1861. Brown was the Academy’s vice-president from 1899 to 1904.
Around 1855, he worked for the owner of the Brooklyn Glass Company, and later he married the daughter of his employer. His father-in-law encouraged his artistic abilities, supporting him financially, letting Brown pursue painting full-time. In 1866, he became one of the charter members of the Water-Color Society, of which he was president from 1887 to 1904. Brown became famous for his depictions of street urchins found of the streets of New York (bootblacks, street musicians, posy sellers, newsboys, etc.).
Brown’s art is best characterized as British genre painting...
